The problem is if you're the commander on the scene and you're following policy, you don't usually get in a lot of trouble. If you don't follow policy, that's usually when trouble starts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's a lot at stake in what happened in Alameda on Memorial Day, for the country. It shows what happens when we allow ourselves to be straitjacketed by rules rather than governed by principles. The changes that need to happen mostly have already happened – the commander on the scene now has discretion to send people into the water. I understand 30 firefighters have volunteered to be trained in water rescue; and they're not getting extra pay. So the policy administratively has been changed, water rescue training is happening, money has been released. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">It is embarrassing; it was not Alameda's finest hour. \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>There are a lot of reasons why the City of Alameda got to where it did that day. I'm not saying that to excuse it at all. It's unacceptable what happened. It won't happen again. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We are going to retain an outside fire or police chief, somebody with some gray hair in the public safety area who is going to review all of the history of how we got to Crown Beach that day so we can learn how it doesn't happen again, because it is embarrassing, it was not Alameda's finest hour. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">We're a highly litigious society. Everybody wants to stay within the four corners connecting the dots of policy.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The issue is broader than what just happened here. Policies are supposed to be an organized way that you implement the principles of what you believe in as a people. What you believe your government is supposed to be working toward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What has happened for many reasons -- I say this as an attorney -- but we're a highly litigious society both in terms of third parties suing cities and in terms of city employees suing cities. Everybody wants to stay within the four corners connecting the dots of policy, because as a public official or as a public employee, if you follow policy, it's almost impossible to lose your job or be demoted. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">We need to give our people a little more leeway to do what's right rather than what conforms to policy.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>It's when you step out of that straitjacket and you take a chance, if things don't go perfectly well, that's when you're subject to the lawsuit, that's when you're subject to discipline. So if you're the commander on the scene, and you tell the guys, 'I don't care if you haven't had training, get in the water,' you don't know if you're going to have a grievance, you don't know what's going to happen. I'm not saying that's what would have happened here, but that's the bureaucratic culture, and that is not limited to Alameda. That is all over California local government. And it really needs to be examined and changed. We need to give our people a little more leeway to do what's right rather than what conforms to policy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of why the public is so frustrated -- the public looks at it and says, we're paying for all these guys who are supposed to be saving lives, but all they want to do is go by the book. The problem is if you're a member of the public whose property is damaged or whose loved one is hurt when a public safety employee doesn't go by the book, you might be the person suing. So in a real way, all of us in America are partially accountable for the culture we live in and how we got to there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, I don't say that to excuse or explain what happened that day. What happened that day was a failure, it was unacceptable, and it will not happen again.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Click here for \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/tag/alameda-drowning/\">more on the Alameda drowning\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":null,"status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1398475666,"stats":{"hasAudio":true,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":20,"wordCount":1011},"headData":{"title":"Interview: John Russo on Alameda Drowning; City Manager Cites Lawsuits, Bureaucracy as Problems | KQED","description":"On Sunday KQED's Cy Musiker spoke with John Russo, the former Oakland City Attorney who resigned to become the city manager of Alameda.

So if you're the commander on the scene, and you tell the guys, 'I don't care if you haven't had training, get in the water,' you don't know if you're going to have a grievance, you don't know what's going to happen. I'm not saying that's what would have happened here, but that's the bureaucratic culture, and that is not limited to Alameda. That is all over California local government. And it really needs to be examined and changed. We need to give our people a little more leeway to do what's right rather than what conforms to policy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of why the public is so frustrated -- the public looks at it and says, we're paying for all these guys who are supposed to be saving lives, but all they want to do is go by the book. The problem is if you're a member of the public whose property is damaged or whose loved one is hurt when a public safety employee doesn't go by the book, you might be the person suing. So in a real way, all of us in America are partially accountable for the culture we live in and how we got to there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, I don't say that to excuse or explain what happened that day. What happened that day was a failure, it was unacceptable, and it will not happen again.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Click here for \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/tag/alameda-drowning/\">more on the Alameda drowning\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/30829/interview-john-russo-on-alameda-drowning-incident","authors":["80"],"programs":["news_6944"],"categories":["news_19906","news_6188"],"tags":["news_212","news_787","news_789"],"label":"news_6944"},"news_30706":{"type":"posts","id":"news_30706","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"30706","score":null,"sort":[1308005948000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"interview-john-russo-calls-oakland-government-morally-corrupt","title":"Interview: Former City Attorney John Russo Calls Oakland Government \"Morally Corrupt\"","publishDate":1308005948,"format":"aside","headTitle":"News Fix | KQED News","labelTerm":{"term":6944,"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_30725\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 166px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/06/johnrusso.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/06/johnrusso.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"johnrusso\" width=\"166\" height=\"250\" class=\"size-full wp-image-30725\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">John Russo\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Cy Musiker yesterday interviewed new Alameda City Manager/old \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandcityattorney.org/bios/j_russo_long.html\">Oakland City Attorney\u003c/a> John Russo, who resigned that position after engaging in several public \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/02/25/oakland-tribune-city-attorney-russo-finalist-for-alameda-city-manager-position/\">disagreements\u003c/a> almost rising to feud-level with Mayor Jean Quan.

Every week, Pen talks to movers and shakers about how the Bay Area shapes what they create, and how they shape the place we call home.","imageSrc":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Rightnowish-Podcast-Tile-500x500-1.jpg","imageAlt":"KQED Rightnowish with Pendarvis Harshaw","officialWebsiteLink":"/podcasts/rightnowish","meta":{"site":"arts","source":"kqed","order":"5"},"link":"/podcasts/rightnowish","subscribe":{"npr":"https://www.npr.org/podcasts/721590300/rightnowish","rss":"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/programs/rightnowish/feed/podcast","apple":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rightnowish/id1482187648","stitcher":"https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/kqed/rightnowish","google":"https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vS1FJTkMxMjU5MTY3NDc4","spotify":"https://open.spotify.com/show/7kEJuafTzTVan7B78ttz1I"}},"jerrybrown":{"id":"jerrybrown","title":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown","tagline":"Lessons from a lifetime in politics","info":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown brings listeners the wisdom of the former Governor, Mayor, and presidential candidate.
